Resumo

Only assisted by molecular recognition and phase transfer is the title reaction efficient. The stability of the complexes of various host cyclodextrins with decene and decanone is mainly determined by the size of the cyclodextrin aperture; the solubility of the cyclodextrins and their complexes in the aqueous and organic phases depends on the chemical modification of the cyclodextrin. With β-cyclodextrin 1 and PdSO4/H9PV6Mo6O40/CuSO4 as the catalytic system, 1-decene is oxidized with O2 to give 2-decanone in 98% yield.
